Standout: Chelsea Pictures

Published on February 16, 2013.

Chelsea's standout lineup of directorial talent steered some of the year's most exciting productions. David Gordon Green was a winner of the 2012 Super Bowl, directing Wieden + Kennedy Portland's stirring "Halftime in America for Chrysler, starring Clint Eastwood. He followed with a series of poignant spots for the brand that captured touching slices of life of Americans and their cars.

Other fine moments include photographer/director Nadav Kander's elegant, frightful explorations of celebrities like Benicio del Toro, Mark Strong, Malcolm Macdowell and Ron Perlman doing what appear to be very evil things--that turn out to be the most mundane of household chores, as well as Lena Dunham's charming expose of her first time, for Obama for America.
